PageNumbers: 41-62


Listed below for each state, are the agencies responsible for
administering the SSIG, Paul Douglas Teacher Scholarship, and the
Robert C. Byrd Honors Scholarship Programs in that state, along
with a contact person for each agency. The SSIG agency is always
listed first, followed by the Douglas agency (in states where the
Douglas program operates), and lastly, the Byrd agency. In many of
the states, the SSIG and Douglas programs are administered by the
same agency, while the Byrd program is administered by either the
State Education Agency (SEA) or a different agency. The contact
for each agency is usually the program official, designated as such
with a "(P)" in front of his or her name. In a few instances, when
there is no program official, the official listed will be the senior
agency official. That person will be designated as such with an
"(A)" in front of his or her name.
